Magic Software Releases uniPaaS Version 1.9 for RIA, Mobile and  Cloud Enabled Applications






PRESS RELEASE


Magic Software Releases uniPaaS Version 1.9 for RIA, Mobile and

Cloud Enabled Applications


Latest uniPaaS version features enhanced RIA capabilities and allows enterprises and ISVs to build business applications for desktop and mobile using a single development paradigm



Or-Yehuda, Israel, April 13, 2010 - Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. (NASDAQ: MGIC), a provider of application platforms and business and process integration solutions, today announced the release of the latest version of the uniPaaS business application platform, Version 1.9.


uniPaaS is the first application platform combining agile development and a single paradigm for multiple deployment options. uniPaaS enables enterprises and software vendors to build client/server applications and rich internet applications (RIA) targeting the latest technologies including Cloud computing, mobile phones and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offerings.


The latest uniPaaS 1.9 release comes with hundreds of enhancements, enabling developers to build complex, mission-critical rich internet applications (RIA) with the ease and agility of desktop applications. Existing customers will also enjoy an easier migration from client/server applications to RIA.


Eyal Pfeifel, chief technology officer for Magic Software comments, “As more companies and ISVs are planning their move to cloud-based solutions, the ability to develop rapidly and deploy both on the cloud and on-premise becomes crucial. Companies considering adding mobile interfaces to their solutions are reluctant to re-develop everything from scratch, and with our uniPaaS V1.9 release, they will be able to support their mobile workforce using the same development tools they use for desktop solutions.”


The freedom of choice offered by Magic Software’s application platform enables businesses to launch confidently into the Cloud without sacrificing current on-premise application models or mission-critical databases.


According to David Stevens, Managing Director for SDMS and a uniPaaS customer, “Magic Software has been the backbone of our business for over 15 years. With uniPaaS we now have a solution offering designed for 21st century consumption – interconnectivity and cloud-based solutions designed to meet the business needs of our customers today, tomorrow and years to come."


uniPaaS V1.9 is available immediately. For more information contact Magic Software.

Notes for Editors

uniPaaS is an application platform enabling Enterprises and Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) to deliver business applications with minimal project risk and associated costs.


Business-Ready Application Development

uniPaaS’ ready-made business application engine (metadata engine) allows developers to bypass the intensive code-writing stage and move more quickly and cost-efficiently to a full business application delivery. This results in fewer project failures and more ability to meet budget and timeline requirements.


Multiple Deployment Capability

With uniPaaS, developers can build an application once and then deploy in multiple modes, including; desktop, client/server, HTML web applications and web 2.0 rich internet applications. Multiple application versions can be more cost-effectively maintained as they are based on the same single development effort and codebase.


Mobile Application Support

The latest versions of uniPaaS make Windows Mobile access to RIA and SaaS as easy as Desktop access. This improves application availability for employees working out of the office. Mobile access also allows technicians and field staff using hand-held computing devices to directly access their business applications and be constantly connected to the organization’s back-end systems.


Full .NET integration

With full .NET integration for PC’s and mobile devices, uniPaaS enables enterprise IT departments and ISVs to create rich internet business applications that maximize the capabilities of the client platform user interface while providing complete connectivity to external devices and easier re-use of existing .NET code and assemblies.
